Mesoscale simulations of membrane-tethered reactions to parameterize cell-scale models of signaling

Kelvin J. Peterson, Boris M. Slepchenko, Leslie M. Loew

The paper uses mesoscale simulations to estimate 2D bimolecular rate constants for membrane-tethered reactions, which can parameterize cell-scale signaling models.

Detection of dedifferentiated stem cells in Drosophila testis

Muhammed Burak Bener, Stella M DiPippo, Boris M. Slepchenko, Mayu Inaba

The paper identifies dedifferentiated stem cells in Drosophila testis using a new genetic tool and live imaging, showing lineage-specific promoters are critical for detection.

Asymmetric stem cell division maintains genetic heterogeneity of tissue cells

Muhammed Burak Bener, Boris M. Slepchenko, Mayu Inaba

The paper examines how asymmetric stem cell division affects clonal dynamics in Drosophila germline stem cells, finding that it maintains genetic heterogeneity and prevents clonal expansion.

Mad dephosphorylation at the nuclear envelope is essential for asymmetric stem cell division

Justin Sardi, Muhammed Burak Bener, Taylor Simao, Abigail E. Descoteaux, Boris M. Slepchenko, Mayu Inaba

The paper shows that Mad dephosphorylation at the nuclear envelope creates asymmetry in pMad levels between stem cells and differentiating daughter cells, preventing tumor formation.
